We bring you, Lord, our prayer and praise
Author: Timothy Dudley-Smith (b. 1926) Hymnal: Ancient and Modern #571a (2013) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 We bring you, Lord, our prayer and praise
that every child of earth
should live and grow in freedom's ways,
in dignity and worth.
2 We praise for such a task begun
to serve each other's need,
for every cause of justice won,
for every fetter freed.
3 Our prayers are for a world in pain
where force and fear prevail,
the plough becomes the sword again,
and hope and harvests fail.
4 Alike our prayer and praise express
the wants of humankind,
that those in bondage and distress
their larger freedoms find.
5 So may we still maintain the fight
till earth's oppressions cease
before the universal right
to liberty and peace.
6 In Christ we learn to love and care
and spread his truth abroad;
and in his Name we lift our prayer:
'Your kingdom come, O Lord.' Topics: Aid and development; Children; Deliverance; Freedom and Liberation; Human Dignity; Justice; Justice and Peace; Kingdom of God; Peace; Social Concern Scripture: Matthew 6:9-13 Languages: English Tune Title: WILTSHIRE
